This Sunday, Renfe has suppressed several trains between Madrid, the Valencian Community and Murcia due to an incident with a train without passengers that occurred yesterday Saturday in the high-speed tunnel which connects the Madrid stations of Atocha and Chamartín.
The High Speed trains originating in Madrid Chamartín suppressed are the following: 5280 (8:30) – 5092 (9:00) – 5120 (12:30) – 5162 (16:00) – 5160 (16:30) – 5182 (18:00) – 5180 (18:30) – 5192 (19:45) and Intercity 11910 (12:15)as reported by the company on the social network X.
Likewise, the following High Speed trains originating in the Valencian Community are suppressed: 5273 (7:24) – 5131 (13:31) – 5143 (14:34) – 5371 (17:42) – 5181 (18:31) – 5193 (18:50) – 5203 (19:45). Alvia 4343 (10:26) and Intercity 11790 (19:13).
Originating in Murcia del Carmen, AVE 5843 is also suspended, leaving at 1:53 p.m. this Sunday, adds the InfoRenfe notice.
On Saturday afternoon, the axle came out in the tail unit of an empty train during a maneuver inside the tunnel that connects the high-speed stations of Puerta de Atocha and Chamartín.
After that train derailed, delays arose that caused crowds of travelers at the station, to which was added the presence of a man who entered an unauthorized access area and threatened to jump from a footbridge.
This caused the activation of the emergency protocol and the total shutdown of the tension at the station at 7:30 p.m., until that person was rescued at 9:20 p.m. and tension was restored on the railway line, before the gradual resumption of train traffic.
At the entrance to Atocha, a Alvia Alicante-Gijón, an Avant Toledo-Madrid, an Avant Madrid-Puertollano, an AVE Figueres-Madrid and an AVE Madrid-Seville, in addition to the suspension of service at previous stations of several Media Distancia and Cercanías trains.
